Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad people are enjoying CheckValve!
I have been (very) slowly working on a new version. Some of the new features
I'm trying to implement are:
* Chat logging
* Background service to check servers on a regular interval
* Status bar alerts if a server is down
*
Hello,
This is a complete guess, but the only thing I can think of is that a port is
either blocked somewhere or not fowarded correctly. Are you behind a NAT and
forwarding ports through a router? Did you try dropping any firewall rules you
have and forwarding all ports (TCP and UDP) in your
It's most likely an attack and not Steam, but I bet someone from Valve could
tell you pretty quickly whether or not it's related to Steam if you sent them a
portion of the capture file. Not sure who you would send that to, though.
Maybe li...@valvesoftware.com ?

Hello,
My TF2 server is registered, and each time the server starts up, I see
these messages:
Received auth challenge; signing into gameserver account...
Game server authentication: SUCCESS! Standing: Good. Trend: Steady
As far as I can tell, this is the only time I can see the server's
Thanks. I don't really play TF2 that often, though, and I don't have
the client installed on my work PC because I only run Linux on my
computers. If the trending statistics are tied to the server, then
shouldn't the command to view them be available on the server? It makes
no sense to me
I guess one way Valve could solve this would be to change the way
status works on the client. They could have the server send
server-state information to the clients at some interval, like once per
second, or perhaps each time something changes (player joins or leaves,
map changes, etc.) and
), but on a game server, that would
probably add so much processing overhead it's not even worth it.
